An Autumn Escape for the Senses at Lydcott Glamping

There’s something magical about autumn in Cornwall. The pace slows, the air turns crisp, and nature takes centre stage in the most enchanting way. At Lydcott Glamping, autumn isn’t just a season – it’s a full sensory experience.

The Sounds of Nature

Wake to a dawn chorus that feels like a private concert. Around Lydcott Glamping, the variety of birdsong is astonishing – from the cheerful notes of robins and wrens, to the delicate call of chiffchaffs and the distinctive cry of lapwings. With the help of the Merlin Bird ID app, guests often discover just how many species are all around them. In the evenings, let the crackle of your fire pit blend with the hoot of owls and the rustle of wildlife in the hedgerows.

The Sights that Take Your Breath Away

Each lodge offers sweeping sea views that shift with the light – golden sunsets melting into starlit skies. Autumn also paints the landscape in rich colours, as leaves turn to vibrant shades of red, orange and gold. Around the site and beyond, the variety of flora and fauna is ever-changing – fungi peeping up through the grass, hedgerows full of berries, and wildlife busy preparing for the colder months ahead. With minimal light pollution, the nights are perfect for stargazing, where the Milky Way feels almost close enough to touch.

The Touch of Comfort and Warmth

Inside, sink into luxurious bedding and soft throws, designed for snuggling after a day exploring the Cornish coast. Outside, wrap your hands around a mug of something warm while basking in the glow of your fire pit – the ultimate autumn comfort.

The Taste of Cornwall

Cornwall’s larder is at its finest in autumn. From freshly landed seafood to hearty local cheeses, artisan breads and sweet seasonal bakes, every bite is a celebration of place. To elevate the experience, why not order one of Lydcott Glamping’s very own Cornish spirits – distilled locally and bursting with flavour. Whether it’s the warming Lydcott Cornish Spiced Rum, the refreshing M’Gwella Botanical Gin, or even the unique Lydcott Cornish Cream Tea Gin, each bottle is the perfect partner to a cosy evening in. Add one to your local breakfast or cream tea hamper order to truly savour the best of Cornwall’s produce.

The Scents of the Countryside

Step inside your lodge and breathe in the freshness of the space, infused with the clean scent of the countryside. Outside, the earthy perfume of rain-soaked grass and the crisp tang of sea air remind you exactly where you are – in the heart of Cornwall’s natural beauty.
